patreon billing pause (Patreon)

Hello friends 🧡

What a month April has been (“: I felt like a snail at everything 🐌 -which is okay!! There is a friend in the art community who shared with me, “good things take time”, and how true that is (thank you Zoey). My day job this past month has required me to work extra due to new company changes. I was feeling a bit overwhelmed and frustrated that I couldn’t enjoy regularly doing something I love, like all the creative things! Life started to feel super rushed and I felt really behind with everything. Next month, for my mental health, I plan to pause Patreon billing in May.

what this means

Patreon will not charge you for the month of May (from May 1, 2023 - May 31, 2023). Even if you remain in the same tier or change your subscription, nothing will be charged. However, I will not be accepting new subscriptions for next month as well. Happy mail and posting will resume starting in June! I will be back 🥰

my plans for May so far 🌼

• rest (what this looks like for me is cooking new things, cleaning my room haha, catching up on my favorite vlogs, and crafting!)
• sewing with mum (I miss making bags!!)
• seeking community and new connections

I am really looking forward to a fresh reset ☺️

It took a lot of encouragement from my family and friends to gather the courage to talk to my boss about seeking time off from my day job and considering a brief pause from Patreon. For those who have been feeling burnt out or super exhausted, know you’re not alone. Take that break if you can. Even if it feels like you just had a break, it’s okay to need another (“: Take care patrons, I am rooting for you all! Thank you for sticking by me as a creator and small business owner. See you in June 💛
